We cannot escape pain & suffering, as they are part of the human condition; however, we can help alleviate their burden! Much has been written about human suffering, and our collective quest to help one another. If you’re not sure what troubles you, schedule a psychiatric assessment and we will discuss your case. Treating adults ONLY ages 18-99 years old! I’ve come to love challenging or difficult-to-treat cases, whether treatment-resistant depression; bipolar/mood disorders; schizoaffective disorder/schizophrenia; anxiety disorders; addictions; insomnia; autism/developmental disorders; ADHD/ADD; eating disorders… This is YOUR life; you are in the driver's seat; I will be your co-pilot, your guide, your listening ear... depending on YOUR needs. How can I help?
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
We will review all the paperwork submitted, particularly Health History and past medications you might have taken in past; we will discussed your goals, primary concerns, as well as your preferences and your own expectations. Some cases are complex and it may be necessary to schedule a second visit to cover all areas in need of treatment--your care will be individualize to fit your needs, as no two cases are the same! If you have questions, I encourage you to write them down so we may go over them during session; however, you can always message me via GT portal or proton mail. Prescriptions will be sent electronically to your pharmacy of choice, if needed and/or discussed.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I am open-minded, flexible; integrate both physical, mental and environmental factors when considering treatments and alternatives. Experienced in care of vulnerable populations; Trauma-informed care. Have found that humor can be a therapeutic tool; I try not to take myself too seriously. Evaluation = $250; follow up = $125 for cash paying patients. Sliding scale for special circumstances--let us know.

The best approach must be based on patient's needs, preferences and presenting problem; we must consider the whole person, not just the diagnosis. Treatment must, therefore be individualized.
